If you jump into the present, you’ll land on a hard, cold rock labeled start.

Twelve different game-board paths surrounding you on the cold, hard rock. 

Which path will you take?

The fog of anxiety and indecision fills you. 

Which move is the right one? Will you find out too late? 

There are NO steps BACK and each board goes in completely different directions each with its own red demise. 

But which board ends with the soft red of the rainbow? 

Which board ends with the red flames of Hell

You’ll never know until it’s too late.

You’ve come this far; now it’s time for a leap of hope filled faith? 

Which path will you take?

This piece is about my fear as a senior in high school being pushed into adulthood with no knowing what's going to happen and no preparedness for how my life will change and all the decisions I'll have to make.
